i find almost any blade is smooth in my EJ i tried the PS in a merkur 38c and wasnt over impreseed vs other blades. i think the sight in turkey is bestshave, they do a nice sample packs and some great blades - the one that worked better for me cost less then half the price of the PS . but that doesnt mean that'll be the case for you with the same blade. bestshave has been good for me i recommend try lots of blades. i found that i got a better shave then i ever dreamed of real cheap! like $8 for more then a years supply.

Perma-sharps are excellent blades. They are a steal at besthsave.net.
They are great blades.
It seems to be true that just about any blade feels smooth in the DE89. That being said, I loved the Perma Sharp I tried with it. It felt similar to a Super Iridium to me. One of my favorite blades so far.
Just be aware there are 2 versions of the Permasharp blades. The one you want to try is the Russian made version.
I love the Perma-Sharps because I think my skin is a bit sensitive and likes the smoother blades.
I DID make the mistake and got the Turkish ones. Just get the 5-pack and not the plastic 10-pack. They don't differentiate them well, I think it was just 5 or 10 packs when I ordered and you had to get the 5 pack.
This. Very nice blades.
This was from memory so used the Permasharps again the last few days. I stand corrected. They seem just as smooth and sharp as the others I mentioned. Great blade.
I think PermaSharp blades are great. They are known to be smoother on the second shave.
good point
in tihe early Russian production the word " yeni" appears does anyone know what a jeni is?
i am sorry but i just did find these to be sharp enough to get the beard of in less the 100 passes.
greetings from Turkey. The word Yeni means "new".
hi loveelvin greetings from Canada. are you from bestshave?
Hello RobC.
I was born in Turkey but lived in USA, most of my life. I recently moved back to Turkey and discovered this forum few months ago..
im not associated with Bestshave, or Permasharp..
I loved going to Turkish barbers for a shave, and thought I could only get that close of a shave through Turkish barbers shavettes. That is until I bought my own de razors.
I use them with Mühle R89. It really work excellent.
Perma-sharp Supers are great in my DE89L (the only razor I have). Their quality for me is neck-in-neck with that of Super Iridiums and Gillette Yellows or Blacks. I purchased 1000 (the Russians) on eBay a few months ago at about 17.5 cents per blade, but, due probably to the changing exchange rate, the bulk price has risen to about the same as what Bestshave charges for any quantity. At Bestshave's price they're still an excellent deal.
